There are spoilers inwards this review.
Batman #17 marks the terminate of Scott Snyder's 2nd big storey on the title: Death of the Family. Unfortunately this storey goes out alongside to a greater extent than of a whimper than a bang, alongside all the build-up in addition to tension of the final 4 chapters never quite paying off.
Batman #17 is meant to shock, but I only constitute it really anti-climatic. All this fourth dimension Snyder has been teasing near how awful the Joker's conception was, but actually I didn't experience similar at that topographic point was much that differentiated it from whatever other Joker story. The Riddler's reply to seeing what Joker had planned was shock, but all he actually did was kidnap the Bat-Family, pretend he'd cutting their faces off, in addition to teach the crusade of mistrust inwards the family. Am I the entirely 1 who doesn't notice that really shocking?
I'm non maxim that inwards enterprise for this storey to run into expectations it had to alive upwards to its cite in addition to kill off a character, but I wishing something a lilliputian to a greater extent than ground-breaking happened than this. The Joker volition survive dorsum inside a few years for only about other scheme, in addition to the Bat-Family volition only movement on.
What burns me most near this is that this is the 2nd arc inwards Snyder's Batman title, in addition to also the 2nd to disappoint me. I'm non going to popular off into every bit good many details on the Court of Owls but I volition only tell I constitute it to survive stretched out every bit good sparse across 11 issues, in addition to only about other tale alongside a really disappointing ending.
Criticising Snyder seems to survive blasphemy inwards the comic-book basis at the moment, but I've got to tell I'm actually non agreement the hype in addition to acclaim.
Now, this majority wasn't all bad. There were only about cool moments, in addition to I did experience a feel of despair at the terminate alongside the thought that no affair what happens the Joker ever wins. Additionally, the fine art remains good done yesteryear Greg Capullo who remains a swell agree for Batman. But this only wasn't plenty inwards the terminate for me to telephone phone Batman #17 a satisfying terminate to Death of the Family.
It pains me to tell it afterward such a rigid build-up inwards previous issues, but Death of the Family is a huge disappointment.
